The world is far from boring.
Really, we’re all just too lazy to go and find the truly insane, cool, fascinating things going on every day. There are trucks dedicated to hauling lava, high-speed log riding in Japan, ancient coffins used in beach bars, crazy nature pics, and a lot more.
Here’s a bunch of awesome stuff we dug up so you don’t have to.
